MilesTheFox Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Just wondering. I primarily created two accounts because the gaming community I'm a part of had 2 guilds, one Republic one Empire. Long story short, both guilds are now dead in the water. Am I better off just scrapping the one sith character and re-rolling on my republic account? Or are account transfers being planned? I do not want to pay for two accounts with both guilds defunct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jofos Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I haven't heard anything about being able to transfer a character between accounts. I'd keep the account that has characters I like the most. Take the credits and send them to a character on the account you are keeping. If you don't have a character of the same faction on that accont just sell something on the Nar Shada AH to transfer credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertigo_ Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I am in a similar situation, I want to know too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vemtaz Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 My issue is slightly different. Someone in my house created a character on my account and after leveling, and deciding they like the game, want to start their own account so we can play together. Any chance of this happening? My guess is, it will be added as a 'pay' service along with additional character slots, open server transfers (any server), etc.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typeslice Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) They've said in interviews that they have no plans for account transfers. Edited June 18, 2012 by Typeslice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmcooke Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) I could be wrong but I've never heard of transfering characters from one account to a separate account in any MMO, so Id guess no, not happening. And I don't understand why you had to create 2 accounts. Your community had 2 guilds, 1 imp, 1 pub, so roll a pub toon and an imp toon. Don't need 2 accounts for that.

ScarletBlaze Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 I could be wrong but I've never heard of transfering characters from one account to a separate account in any MMO, so Id guess no, not happening. They did have that in SWG where you could transfer one character to another account provided they were both yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I left I transferred all of my characters to a friend who wanted to play them but not level them. You just need to know their password and some other stuff.

Mmmm. that sounds sketchy and if true must be a very new service as I did several character transfers in my time in WoW (most recently right around Cata release) and there was never an option to transfer them to a different account.

I remember doing an account transfer in WOW about a few years ago. Maybe about 3 years ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertigo_ Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) so, yes or no bioware? You have taken a huge leap forward with character transfers, dont take 2 steps back. Edited June 18, 2012 by vertigo_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
